The episode titled "Baggage" finds Elizabeth Canterbury defending a man who has apparent psychic abilities and comes forward about a murder which the District Attorney's office is perfectly willing to charge him with, especially when his violent past is revealed.

Robinson plays a supporting role on Canterbury's team, as his character Chester deals with trying to find a credible psychic witness for the trial, amongst his other duties.
